Discover new floral displays, St. Ermin's botanical Gin and a fresh seasonal menu

Tucked away in the lush courtyard of the St. Ermin's Hotel in London's St James' Park, The Terrace has had a summer makeover – transforming into one of the prettiest al fresco dining and drinking spots in London. A wonderfully tranquil and sunny spot, surrounded by greenery in the bustling city of Westminster, The Terrace has been beautifully decorated with seasonal blooms (both real and faux) - providing the perfect backdrop for a sparkling afternoon tea, light meals and sensational summer drinks. 

The new Terrace menu has been inspired by the hotel's unique outdoor spaces and features a selection of carefully curated summer tipples – including exclusive 'St. Ermin's London Dry Gin' cocktails. This specially produced small batch gin has been made with hand-picked botanicals from the thriving rooftop garden and honey direct from the beehives located on the third floor 'bee terrace', resulting in a refreshing and uplifting spirit.

Perfect for sharing, snacks such as charcuterie and piquillo peppers can be enjoyed on The Terrace as well as items from the impressive Caxton Bar menu. Afternoon Tea can also be taken outside (weather permitting) with sparkling Pommery Rosé Brut NV options and a delightful kids menu for our special little visitors.
